<p>hi,i m a new user....i will b glad if u tell me which is a good eng college for avionics or aerospace eng</p>
<p>I pretty much have the same thread going right now but heres a list for top schools</p>

1 Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, MA
2 Georgia Institute of Technology Atlanta, GA
3 University of Michigan–Ann Arbor Ann Arbor, MI
4 Purdue University–West Lafayette West Lafayette, IN
5 California Institute of Technology Pasadena, CA
6 University of Illinois–Urbana-Champaign Champaign, IL
7 Stanford University Stanford, CA
8 University of Texas–Austin Austin, TX
9 University of Maryland–College Park College Park, MD
10 Virginia Tech Blacksburg, VA</p>
<p>Colleges That Only Offer Undergraduate Aerospace Engineering:
1 Embry Riddle Aeronautical University Daytona Beach, FL
2 United States Air Force Academy USAF Academy, CO
3 Embry Riddle Aeronautical University–Prescott Prescott, AZ
4 United States Naval Academy Annapolis, MD
5 California Polytechnic State University–San Luis Obispo San Luis Obispo, CA</p>
<p>Do you have any preferences as to where in the country the school is, whether it’s a large/small school, weather it has an urban/rural setting, and how selective it is?</p>
<p>If you put as much effort into college as you do your search for a college you might as well give up now because you’ll be failing out.</p>
<p>^ hey buddy why don’t you lighten up a bit huh?
OBVIOUSLY he joined the board for INFORMATION (hint: point of these forums)</p>
<p>Why not ask around in this engineering board for the opinions of those who are knowledgeable? Also, I doubt his inability to search (but ask, which is what he’s meant to do) would mean he’ll flunk out of college.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Yes, but the forums are not a substitute for Google. We’re not here to parrot the same information over and over, and we can occasionally get pretty frustrated when people expect us to do their basic college search footwork for them. We’re more than happy to answer specific questions for people, but to drop by the forums and say “I want to be an aerospace engineer, tell me some colleges” is essentially saying “I don’t feel like doing research on this pivotal life decision so I’m going to ask all the people that hang around this forum to take their own time and do research and type up paragraphs to help me, despite my not really wanting to help myself.”</p>
<p>It’s kind of rude, when you think about it from the perspective of the regulars around here.</p>
<p>Anyhow, OP, I’d recommend that you look at the US News & World Reports rankings, which are listed in the first bookmarked thread of this forum. They have a good list of aerospace engineering schools, and any of the schools on that list would give you a solid education. Beyond that, think of the kind of school that you want-- large, small, urban, middle-of-nowhere-- and start narrowing down your list based upon what you like and dislike. Your library should have a Fiske Guide to Colleges in it, where you can find out a little more about college life at the various colleges. Sign on to the Princeton Review website and use their online “Counselor-O-Matic” Best Fit School Search. Look at the colleges’ websites. Look at the colleges’ aerospace engineering department websites, too, and see what classes you’d be required to take.</p>
<p>If, along the way, you find you have some more specific questions about a particular college or a particular aspect of your search, I’m sure you’d find that someone around here is knowledgeable about it, and that they’d be very happy to help you out. The people around here just don’t react well to being taken for granted.</p>
<p>I’m more offended by his grammar than by the specific question…</p>
<p>That too, HH. If a person can’t summon the effort to type out the entire word “be,” then I sure as heck don’t feel too motivated to help them out any. ;)</p>
